Chapter 13 - Preparation

Sam looked towards Manasa. Manasa also looking towards Sam with gaze with expectation. What expectation you may ask. It's actually nothing. She felt Sam was going to say something.

"Manasa roar like me." Sam used dragon roar. Hearing Sam's roar Manasa eyes couldn't help but sparkle. He is so cool. Even his roar is extraordinary.

Manasa also raised her head towards the sky and roared. Her roar was similar to Sam. Sam looked towards Manasa status panel.

Manasa also learned Dragon roar. Dragon snake was true to it's name.

System can't you show Manasa her status like how I can see.

No, system can't do that. System isn't infinitely powerful. The benefits you gain from system is already set. What changes creator did was already above what benefits system can give you. To maintain balance he reduced tour strength to average of all beasts and removed function to buy skills. You will gain new function only after reaching rank 5]

Forget it. Manasa is already powerful. Manasa if you face enemy you can use the roar you used just now. This roar is different from roar of tigers and lions. This is dragon roar. It can startle enemies and induce fear on weaker enemies. You can even improve it after reaching rank 5.

Manasa listened attentively each word Sam said. She felt proud that she could do what Sam can do. It's name was even dragon roar. She roared again feeling proud.

Seeing Manasa happy he was happy for her. She was like a child. She treated him like a star. How could he not be happy for her accomplishment. She has a very bright future. Dragon snake was a mythical beast which could barely pass as dragon snake but both Manasa( Sam's subordinate and real Manasa) and Vashuki were different. Vashuki's power was equal to Dragon King. Snakes weren't powerful race in god realm but two snakes Vashuki and Shesnag were like taboo entities for two reasons. First was they themselves. Their power was equal to Dragon King. Second were entities behind them. Vashuki was Shiva's pet and Shesnag was Vishnu's bed.(Yes, he was Vishnu's bed. Lord Vishnu is very overbearing. He isn't arrogant but he likes to be praised and respected very much.)

The gift that Vashuki gave Manasa was his bloodline. So, she was inclined towards the later. Her future was as bright as Sam's.

I don't even where I am and which beasts rule nearby territory. What I need now is information. Maybe I can collect information from the rats. System can the rats talk or you could translate what they are saying.

[No, the rats can't talk but when they reach rank 4 they will learn beasts language and can talk using spiritual sense. System can translate what rats are saying.]

Then let's go to rats burrow now. Sam came in front of rats burrow and roared. You may think why Sam roared now rats had already surrendered. It was to increase dragon roars level. You may say Sam could roar again and again to increase it's level but system said he couldn't. He can only level up by using it in battle. This had transpired when Sam was still stupid. Otherwise why wouldn't have Sam raised level of these skills.

Leader of rats immediately came out from the burrow. It was very anxious. Why did the mighty being came to his house.

Seeing the leader rat Sam questioned him without waisting time." Do you know which beasts lives where in the forest."

[We don't know. We came from a big family. Nearby beast came and attacked us. All of us escaped. Our group came here not long ago. So, we don't know that much but WS have seen monkeys and panthers around here sometimes.] System translated what leader rat said.

Sam frowned hearing the answer. Both monkeys and Panther are going to be serious trouble. They will definitely be dangerous. The eagle was in the top of food chain here then Panther will obviously in second, monkeys may as well be in third. This area wasn't really peaceful then.

I should make the top of the hill as base. The top of hill is flat and barren. There aren't trees so monkeys will rarely go there. There are no grasses so panther will not go there. Panthers usually like to hide themselves or sit on trees to be hidden from their potential preys. Even though Panther may not go there it wasn't hundred percent safe place. It may come chasing it's prey. Monkeys are troublemakers so they can also go to hilltop anytime. But, it is still the most safe place. Rats may be alive because they can't do anything once rats hide inside the burrow but what about Sam. He will be constant danger.

Sam went towards the statue. Make the statue small. The size of statue decreased and became small. System do you have inventory.

[Yes, you can put the statue in inventory.]

The statue vanished. Manasa was dumbstruck seeing big statue Bing small and disappearing. Master is so cool. He can make statue vanish by touching it.

Sam went toward the cave he had spend ten days healing his injuries. He took out the his statue and placed it inside the cave. Now I will have to a plan to expand my territory. It will be easy only if there was a map or I could know my location. System where exactly am I?

[You are in South Asia, below Himalayan region.]

Huh, Himalayan region? It has most diverse ecosystem. Which forest is this tropical or subtropical?

[You are in hilly region in temperate zone.]

I really have good luck then. There will not be many dangerous beasts in temperate zone. I will only have to stay away from eagles and vultures. The main boss of this area is the eagle. Then there will only be monkey and mountain cat or something similar. If I go south from here only then I will have to face Panther and tiger. The rats must have mistaken big cat as a panther. I can start with hares then. I think food chain here has eagle at top which must be rank 3 or initial rank 4 as maximum cultivation. Then the wild cats may be in initial rank 3. If I go north I might have to face wolfs, then snow leopard which will have middle or late rank 3.

To the south there will be plains. This will be the last hurdle we have to pass before going into ocean. There will be rhinos,elephants and tigers in plains. If I am in south Asia then if I follow any rivers then I will reach Indian ocean. I should start from north then. Eagle is already here. So, I don't have to fear of my territory being snatched.

"Manasa you have comprehend Dao of life. Can you feel if any living beings are near us" Sam asked to Manasa. She had comprehended Dao of life. So, she might be capable of sensing life force.

"I don't know. I haven't tried yet." Manasa said in little gloomy tone. She wasn't of any use to her master. She had to do this. Her master was so cool but she can't help her master in anyway.

She closed her eyes and what she did Sam doesn't know. She opened her eye again."How do I sense life force" Manasa asked Sam. How could she know how to feel life force. She wasn't even a baby if we look at her race. She would be inside a egg now if she was born as dragon snake or she would already in rank 5 at least if system hadn't intervened on her evolution.

"Sigh, how can you do it even before learning. OK Manasa do feel anything different about me than the walls of cave." Sam asked Manasa.

"Yes, You are so cool. How can these dull walls outshine your presence." Manasa said with eyes full of stars.

Sam was speechless. This must be the reason why MC on those novels get respect from those girls they pickup from street who seems to have heaven defying talents as maid. She was a child and didn't knew anything about the world.

"Manasa close your eyes and try to feel my presence. I will move then you will have to tell my location. Okay" Sam said in serious tone. She had such good affinity with life. She will immediately get it. Sam was pretty sure about it.

Manasa closed her eyes. Sam moved beside Manasa. "Manasa where am I can you feel my presence?"

Manasa imagined Sam on her head. In her head Sam was as big as the hill which they were on. He had noble aura around him. He had his head high with pride and arrogance. He was looking towards the forest as seeing an ant beneath him. Sun was on his right and moon was his left. Stars were dancing around Sam. This is how see imagined Sam in her mind. She had seen millions if mortals life when comprehending Dao of life. So, she knew Sun and moon were the most important existence in the hearts of mortals. Sun and moon were the beings who gave them life. So they had utmost respect for them. That's why she imagined Sun and Moon on both side of Sam because Sam was the utmost presence on her life. If Dam wasn't here. How could she be what she was today. He could even make her comprehend what she could. She didn't know what she learned. But she knows that it was very important. She also felt the power of Sam's soul. She could tell even earth was terrified. She may be only common cobra at that time but she could feel her relation with earth and this forest. She was born with affinity towards life and wood. She has awaken affinity with life now she only needed to awaken affinity with wood.

"Yes, I can feel you on my right."

"Now"

"Behind me"

"This time"

"You are behind a tree"

"You can even feel a tree. You are really a genius. You have very good affinity with life. You learned it so fast. "

" I also have affinity with it. I should be able to feel it too" Sam began to close his eyes and searched for Manasa's presence. He only saw a hazy outline. It couldn't be said as outline. He could only feel something like a mass of something.
